Compared with C. alba, this specie* is of larger size, less elongated 

 form and thinner shell. The spiral striae, which are effaced in 

 the middle of C. alba, are more strongly marked, and cover the 

 whole surface. It is larger than C. propinqua Sars, more cylin- 

 drical, less globose, with shorter, more arcuate columella, thinner 

 shell and more distinct strire. 



C. OCCULTA Mighels. PL 28, figs. 35, 36, 37, 38, 39, 40, 41. 



Shell solid, white, covered with a very thin whitish yellow epider- 

 mis; ovate, rather short and swollen, the diameter about two-thirds 

 the altitude. Vertex obtusely truncated, slightly concave in the 

 middle; base rounded; aperture not very narrow, dilated below, 

 the outer lip projecting above the crown of the shell, a little arcuate 

 and inflexed in the middle ; columella nearly straight, with a broad 

 fold. Surface smooth, polished, shining, but covered with many 

 impressed, subundulating lines, which are quite conspicuous. Alt. 

 9 mill. Radula with the formula 2,1.1.1,2. (Sars, C. propinquci),
